Betty White’s appearance this week on RAW was just silly enough to work, but the real highlight of the show was the solid card. With Antonio Cesaro and Daniel Bryan continuing to gain fan support and John Cena’s presence in the WWE Title picture picking up steam, RAW was certainly interesting.
Check out this week’s RAW Power Rankings to see who has the most to lose going into the Elimination Chamber.
Honorable Mention: The New Age Outlaws: Their antics with Betty White were cool enough to work and with the Tag Team titles around their waists and plenty of competition in the division, Road Dogg and Billy Gunn are enjoying a career renaissance.
5: The Wyatt Family: Their performance on RAW this week was stellar. Sure, it helps that they were in the ring with Goldust, Cody Rhodes and Rey Mysterio, but Wyatt’s running Sister Abigail was simply nuts. Between their feud with The Shield and their continually solid promos
4: Antonio Cesaro: While he won’t win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at Elimination Chamber, the WWE Universe is beginning to understand once again what a special performer he is. With lackluster competition in the United States and Intercontinental title scenes, Cesaro needs, no he deserves another upper mid-card singles run before he’s elevated into WW Title contention on a more permanent basis.
3: Daniel Bryan: He doesn’t have to wrestle on RAW to make the list. The crowds chants and his promo in the beginning of the show where he demanded a match with Kane were good enough. While this is a feud the WWE Universe has seen before, it’s still a damn good one. The real face of the company, Bryan has a plethora of momentum going into the Elimination Chamber.
2: Randy Orton: After his loss last week to Daniel Bryan, Orton seems to have come to the conclusion that he’s better off kissing the Authority’s ass than fighting them for every inch they give him. While it hasn’t helped his win-loss record, Orton has still found a way to hold on to the most important title in the industry.
1: John Cena: WWE’s Superman knows his career is at a crossroads. While he’s still the most important piece to the company’s puzzle, he knows there are plenty of guys, who, with the right push, could fill his shoes. However, with another shot at the WWE World Heavyweight title, it’s obvious not quite ready to step aside.
